Consider option / strategy to make all joins independent of case.
Could add tolower as an option in clean_names() and fuzzy_names(), but should also be done for joins.
Should darwin core records (database tables) enforce tolower() on any/all names? Probably not, better to represent data as it came and handle this in the join method.
